Air Defence System Integrator Upgrade Testing Success

The Air Defence System Integrator (ADSI) which is operated by Number 1 Air Control Centre, RAF, has just undergone a software and hardware upgrade to become more sustainable. Ultra Electronics Command and Control Systems delivered the new hardware and software and the SyntheSys testing team supported the upgrade on behalf of the Situational Awareness Command and Control (SACC) Delivery Team (DT) by providing a Subject Matter Expert to act as Test Director and independent observer.

John Miller, Technical Director for SyntheSys commented that “The service provided included a series of factory acceptance and site acceptance tests.  To provide further test evidence we also utilised the Multi Link Test Facility (MLTF) to test for the ADSI conformance to TDL standards and interoperability with other UK air platforms such as the Sentry E-3D.  These further tests demonstrated how the MLTF provides a highly effective, low cost and low risk approach to testing.”

SyntheSys & IBM Rational

Optimise your Software and Systems Engineering development

As a Systems Engineering Company providing services to the defence industry for over twenty years, we know a thing or two about the difficulties of managing projects and developing solutions in highly regulated industries. The current economic climate has stressed the imperative that this development work needs to be carried out smarter and more efficiently, regardless of the domain.

SyntheSys have been using a number of solutions from the Rational portfolio for many years and have accrued expertise in the delivery, implementation and support of these solutions within our own business and are in a position now to offer support to others in the procurement and utilisation of these solutions. We are an IBM Advanced Business Partner and certified to both resell and provide value add technical support.

I regularly speak with development teams who are completely unaware of the capabilities of IBM Rational within both software development and systems engineering and are delighted to find that there are tools out there that ultimately designed to make the job easier. Inevitably the focus turns to cost and often it is a case of "Can we afford not to embrace current technology to optimise the business process?"

The Rational toolset supports the entire engineering lifecycle from requirements definition through design, implementation and test. All underpinned by collaborative lifecycle management with change control and planning. SyntheSys will be presenting a webinar on 23rd May to provide a high level overview of these capabilities. Registration for this event is at http://bit.ly/15RrDj9. I hope that you will join me for this peek at the current capabilities and how they may accelerate and optimise your development environments, either in software or in systems domains.

For background information on the capability areas check out our website, where there are a number of white papers and videos for your consideration.

SyntheSys at NTDLS - Calpe

SyntheSys attended the 16^th NATO Tactical Data Link Symposium at Calpe on 11 - 14 March 2013. Phil Angus and Paul (Ski) Czajkowski represented the Company and provided briefs on BLOS Communications in the Urban Environment and the UK Multi-Link Test Facility, which is operated by SyntheSys on behalf of the MOD. 

Ski also chaired a Link 16 Network Design Workshop, which drew attendance from a wide range of interested military and commercial partners in the domain of data link and network management. We were able to discuss a number of TDL-related operational and training issues with many national TDL specialists from within NATO, and with Industry. 

The whole event was conducted in a relaxed but professional manner, thereby encouraging free and frank discussion.
